    Re: Need to buy a new case..need help.

    When choosing a case you need to look at the form factor of the motherboard and the motherboard compatibility of the case. The motherboard you listed is micro atx it will fit in a micro atx case. If you want a larger case, many mid size and full size cases will take micro atx but, not the one you are thinking about.

    On Newegg's site you can click the specifications tab of a case and look at motherboard compatibility.
